Abstract	Despite the growing use of media in the classroom, the effects of using of audio versus video in pronunciation teaching has been largely ignored. To analyze the impact of the use of audio or video training on aural discrimination of vowels, 61 participants (all students at a large American university) took a pre-test followed by two training sessions on a vowel contrast (/i/-/?/). One group received audio training and the other group received video training. The groups then took a post-test and delayed post-test to determine the impact of the training. Students' reactions to the two training types were also obtained through a questionnaire. Results showed that while both groups improved significantly from the pre-test to both post-tests, there was no statistically significant difference between the video and audio groups. Results show that reactions were more favorable to the video training. (Verlag).
